| 0:00.0 | Good morning, everyone. |
| 0:10.5 | Welcome to the Early Edge. |
| 0:11.9 | My name is Cianajad, otherwise known as the counselor of cash. |
| 0:15.1 | And this show is brought to you by BetMGM, Make It Legendary. |
| 0:20.0 | I got to tell you, we've got a legendary matchup for the Super Bowl, but a legendary recap screen as well. Before I bring in the stars of the show, wow, just a lot of picks. Don't forget we had that Sunday morning show. I go three out of four. The sports line picks go four out of five. Let's see. Brinson goes two out of four. Chip hits his play. Long story short, |
| 0:39.1 | we go 15 wins and eight losses. I really love that. Larry Hartstein hitting his pick. Mike |
| 0:44.6 | McClor goes one for two. I mean, just take a look. Breathe it in. A really good weekend, some really |
| 0:52.0 | awesome football matchups and some really awesome cappers on this show. Let's bring in the stars of the show because we're one short kind of buckets is still over in Europe. He's got a little video to show us. He's got a couple of picks on the show. But right now we've got prop stars and we've got Mike McClure. And Mike Mike I'm going to start with you. We've got a |
| 1:10.9 | Super Bowl matchup. The line I think opened in that three and a half range. We're talking |

Um, the Cocks look incredible. Uh, and it really comes down to how well that offense is going to play with Sam |
| 1:47.1 | Darnold. |
| 1:48.2 | If he plays like that, they should probably be closer to a six, six and a half point favorite in this game. |
| 1:54.5 | The Patriots, it'll be interesting to see if people, you know, |
| 1:57.5 | knock them for the performance against the Denver team. |
| 2:01.0 | Look, Denver is a legit defense and a very difficult place to play. |
| 2:05.0 | Seattle is obviously very much the same defensively. |
| 2:07.9 | So I mostly agree with the movement. |
| 2:11.2 | I certainly understand why it's got gobbled up on the other side of the four at three |
